Stack's Bowers Auction The March 2012 Baltimore Auction Mar-2012 CAC 1873 Pattern Shield Nickel. Judd-1265, Pollock-1407. Rarity-7+. Aluminum. Plain Edge. Proof-64 Cameo (NGC). CAC. The obverse and reverse are the regular dies of the 1873 Shield nickel with Close 3 date logotype.
An extremely rare pattern issue with just two examples certified between both services, one at PCGS as PR-64, and the present offering at the same grade level but with the desirable Cameo designation. The surfaces are bright and reflective with no specks or spots, and bold visual appeal. The 1 is repunched low on the date. A prize for the specialist that may not be offered again for generations.
